The aim of this presentation is to reconstruct John Searle’s theory of constitutive rules in light of the proposal of Amadeo Conte’s theory of the regola eidetico-costitutiva. The distinction between constitutive rules and regulative rules has received different criticism. I will suggest a proposal of constitutive rules that defend them from the linguistic distinction critique pointed out by Lewis and Ross. Furthermore, I will explain and present possible routes to understand the violation of a constitutive rule while players still playing the game (Williamson, Garcia Carpintero). Finally, I will leave the possibility to expand this proposal to the nature of the rule of recognition out to possibly discuss it in the general discussion. To this end, I proceed as follows. First, I present the state of the art in the short videos: some of the main arguments of John Searle’s theory of constitutive rules and some relevant criticism related. Second, I explain some key points that expand the comprehension of Searle’s theory in the long video.
